    He took an action that took 3 years to complete instead of ending it on day one and telling the courts to fuck off.

    That’s keeping it in place for 3 years.

    This isn’t misinformation, this is you being intentionally dense.

      POTUS is the head of the Executive Branch. He has no control over the Judicial Branch other than appointing judges in the event of vacancy.

      Telling them to “fuck off” is meaningless nonsense.

      Also, it still wasn’t three years. From inauguration in January of 2021 to May of 2022. You seem to really want to be right. You’d probably have more success if you cited accurate information.

        Oh no it was closer to 2.5 years than 3.5 years!

        Come on, you know this doesn’t refute my point.

        Telling them to “fuck off” is meaningless nonsense.

        The SCOTUS has no means to enforce its decisions. It knows this and has historically kowtowed to the executive when faced with its own marginalization.

        The president literally can just ignore them, as Trump did when they made a ruling he didn’t like such as DACA. There’s some other precedents: https://revealnews.org/blog/a-brief-history-of-presidents-telling-so-called-judges-to-get-lost/

          As I said, it was a year and a half when he ended Title 42. It was two and a half years due to Federal court. Your initial claim was three and a half years. Is it that hard to admit that you’re wrong?

          I’m done with your repeated misrepresentation of my argument, and childish suggestions that “he can just do what he wants” and tell the judge to “fuck off.”

          Good night.
